where there’s smoke

another new technique. saw this smoke manicure the other day and loved the way it looked. mine didn’t turn out quite as i’d hoped – the original used pure acetone to disperse the paint on top. i, for some reason, still have yet to invest in acetone. this manicure does not work as well with nail polish remover.

this was supposed to be a quick mani – two coats and some blobs of acetone and you’re done. but with the polish remover this took me probably two hours. ugh. well now i know.
